Alright, let's solve this math problem step by step. First, we have the number 579. Next, we see the multiplication sign, which means we need to multiply something. And what are we multiplying it by? We multiply it by 12. So, we're going to take the number 579 and add it to itself 12 times.
Step 1: 0 + 579 = 579
Step 2: 579 + 579 = 1158
Step 3: 1158 + 579 = 1737
Step 4: 1737 + 579 = 2316
Step 5: 2316 + 579 = 2895
Step 6: 2895 + 579 = 3474
Step 7: 3474 + 579 = 4053
Step 8: 4053 + 579 = 4632
Step 9: 4632 + 579 = 5211
Step 10: 5211 + 579 = 5790
Step 11: 5790 + 579 = 6369
Step 12: 6369 + 579 = 6948

So, 579*12 = 6948
